The Dia de Muertos (Day of the Dead) Fiesta is one of the coolest things to happen in Cleveland around this time of year. Taking place in Gordon Square on the campus of Cleveland Public Theater, it’s truly a sight to see. Traditionally, Mexican families take this day to honor family members who have passed on by making beautiful shrines of sugar skulls and skeletons and adorning them with flowers and candles. This year features artwork and installations (check out the outdoor cemetery) created by local artists and kids’ art programs, music, food and much more. The parade of skeletons and skulls starts at 3:30 p.m., but the whole thing will be happening all day from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. (Trenholme)
